Yeah, I finished it and realized I had to make a new signature on there for 2008. Normally I would've made one at the end of December. But, if you've been keeping track, you kinda know what went wrong there.

But this is my first piece in almost six months. I was playing Chrono Trigger in the hospital for the billionth time, and since getting out I've been playing the hell out of Chrono Cross. With the Chrono series on my brain, it seemed like a good time to get a fanart up.

My alternate line for Crono was "It's true: No good deed goes unpunished!" Do you like that better? I kinda do, but I thought it might go over too many heads.

Anyway, this is 1005 A.D., five years after Chrono Trigger. By this point Crono and Marle are married. And Lucca has found a little baby in the woods and adopted her. And Porre, a formerly friendly protectorate of the kingdom of Guardia attacks and conquers the long-standing nation. HOW? Beats me, that's the subject of much debate.

All I know is when I saw that cutscene, my reaction was exactly the same as Crono's. It was like "What did I bother killing Lavos for, then?"

And this one was fun because I got to take a little artistic license with the outfits. I wanted to think of what they'd look like a little older, and comfortably living in the castle. I was also originally going to have them just standing there, kinda deadpan. But I figured no matter what became of Crono and Marle, I doubt they just stood there when Porre attacked. So I changed it to Crono drawing his sword, and Marle getting ready to cast a spell (I didn't feel like drawing a crossbow! ^_^).

And I added the cat. I loved the role that cats played in Chrono Trigger. And I figured Crono wasn't gonna move out of his mom's house without taking his little cat with him! NEVER! ^_^

Finally, I nearly forgot by God, but I did remember. I managed to get a visual aide for Marle's pose courtesy of *SenshiStock 's very useful gallery.
